Hello everyone, so I recently took the DAT
18AA/19TS/20PAT
3.86 overall GPA
3.75 science GPA
and I thought for sure i would have to retake it, i scheduled a DAT date, updated my subscriptions, bought CDP, basically everything to prepare for it again, I even took a semester off of school, I was supposed to graduate in December but now i will be graduating in May, which isn't a big deal.

But here is the thing, my dream school is UDM and right when i wasn't expecting a got an invite for an interview, and almost every student i know that got interviewed got accepted or wait listed, unless they cussed in their interview or something haha.

my question is, do i still retake it even though i got an interview invite? do you guys think i should wait until after december 1st or 2nd, after they've made their decision to know if i should take it or not?
i know i am over thinking things but just like everyone here i would like to be on the safe side and i am willing to do anything i could to pursue my dream...

any advice would be greatly appreciated...😳
 
I would retake DAT just because you paid for it. Moreover as you said you purchased additional study tools and not enrolled in school. You have nothing to lose. It would be nice if they accept you, but what if not, then you would still have to retake it.


P.S Congrats and I hope the interview goes well for you.
 
i was thinking of scheduling it after they make their decision, so i know for sure...

thank you haha good luck to you too
